Antonio Rigonan, LPC

Antonio Rigonan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, sleeping problems, depression, and life changes. He also helps with compassion fatigue and a range of related concerns.

Before private practice he served as a U.S. Air Force chaplain. That background shaped his approach to practical coping and clear communication. He uses familiar, evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered work, mindfulness practices, narrative techniques, and solution-focused strategies.

Sessions focus on concrete tools and conversation. Antonio listens to what is happening now, and then helps people test small changes. For anger that shows up as snapping at loved ones or building resentment, he offers ways to notice triggers, practice different responses, and reduce unwanted escalation.

He pays attention to culture and life context, and he can work in English or Tagalog. People who need help with relationship communication, men's issues, financial stress, or end-of-life concerns can bring those topics into sessions. He also supports those coping with isolation, impulsivity, or problems tied to aging and hospice contexts.

Practical steps like thought records, brief behavioral experiments, and focused conversations are common in his work. He encourages regular follow-ups to track progress and adjust strategies. To start, prospective clients complete a short match questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
